g-d save the queen

A british accent is much like marijuana in the sense that it just amplifies the current state of the situation. In this specific case, the subject of my thesis is brittney murphy. What i'm avoiding admitting is that i just wasted and hour and 46 minutes of my life watching possibly one of the worst romantic comedies of all time. I'm not sure how terrible the movie was originally, but the kicker was when the director gave brittney murphy a pseudo american/british accent. The movie did in fact note that Murphy was half american, half british, thus explaining her awkward accent, which is most likely due to the fact that she can't form a proper british accent on her own. What a sly cover for such a horrible sound. What is it about a british accent that makes life so appealing? Everything seems to be that much more attractive when there's a healthy layer of british sounding words slathered on top. Harry potter, the osbournes, prince william, david beckham, VICTORIA beckham, the word colour, poorly dressed pop groups, psychology, spice world, orbit gum, the spanish armada. All of these things seem to lose their glamour as soon as you remove the adorably soothing voice of the UK from the picture. If only my attempt at a british accent didn't morph into the voice of mr. quikimart clerk meets western meets oliver twist. Maybe i'd be a whole lot cuter.
Speaking of adorable, i recently ate my body weight in cheesy fries. Or maybe they were cheez-e fries. The class of cheese is fairly questionable. But no matter where this cheese originated from, there was a ton of it. The basket of fries themselves wasn't actually that large. I think it was just the density of the meal all together that sealed the deal. This was some massive side dish. I'm pretty sure i couldn't bench this basket, even with proper spotting. But i'd like to think that the fries were a positive contribution to my soul as opposed to my belt buckle. I'm fairly confident that weight control is all mental. Take that jenny craig. The clickety sound of me typing is making my cheesy-self a little nauseated. I'm gonna go throw up my major internal organs.
